The Hobart 2025 Strategic Framework identifies the directions needed to continue to improve the quality of life of Tasmania's capital city.

The key element of the strategic framework is a long-term vision for the city, developed in consultation with residents, business, interest groups, key city stakeholders, young people and students from across the city. The Vision represents a shared understanding of what Hobart should be like in the year 2025.

The 20 year vision has been translated into a series of future direction statements and 20 year strategies. The Hobart 2025 Strategic Framework has been endorsed by the Council as a long term planning reference.

The Future Directions Statements and 20 year strategies that underpin the Vision will provide the basis for the development of future 5 year strategic plans.
